It is so surreal. To think we are contracted to finish in Feb 2014 and we only hoped we would be in before Christmas!! So reality is fantastic that we will be well and truly in and celebrating Christmas in our home, with time to do landscaping and unpacking beforehand! Everything's looking fantastic. MummaDj. Love how it looks. Did you manage to get the fencing and blinds booked in on time? Finally updated my blog the stairs and cabinets have been installed. This week I guess the doors will go in including the bi-fold. Looking fabulous tinker, it all seems to have happened quickly. Our bi-fold took a little while to get put in also. It is always great seeing the stairs go in, rather than a ladder! Did you sort the window issue yet? Not yet mummaDj . We are suppose to meet the construction manager tomorrow. Wondering if anyone has problems with similar windows not in the same hieght or only one window having an infil above the window. Below is the white infill that was put initially. Now they have replaced it with aluminum infills that match the window. We want all 3 windows to be the same height and bricks above it.

Re: Porter Davis homes 8098Sep 17, 2013 8:00 am meowsy Back pocket, we get weekly updates from our BC, they are only brief but at least we get an idea of what is happening. Do you get something similar? 2 No Meowsy, we get no communication at all. Havent heard from our BC since the build started apart from asking if our slab SS had contacted us, as I had sent her an email about it. I will be ringing mid this week to prompt for an update. We want to put in our own sound insulation into some walls, we got PD to do it last time and half of it was thrown out by the electricians etc. No happy, this time we will do it once they have finished.

I am concerned at the window too. Can you please tell me which window it is, it is hard to tell from the picture. We changed most of our windows to be the same size, so I hope that this doesn't happen to us too. Will be waiting for an update. Good luck! Re: Porter Davis homes 8100Sep 17, 2013 8:11 am oceanblu hi everyone Just joined the site. Am looking at getting a PD house (my favourite plan so far out of the hundreds). The plan I like is "Dunes" (anyone built this?) and will be taking a look at it on the weekend. Feeling pretty excited because off plan it ticks all the boxes so far. Glad to read that most people seem to have a really positive experience with PD (unlike other builders). I'll be living on this thread for quite some time. So, hi! Hi Oceanblu, I will have to check out your floorplan too, I am not familiar with it. Hold on for an awesome ride, the joys of a portaloo and the despair of rain, amongst sleepless nights of wondering if all your colours will go together and then finally seeing it all come together. Good luck! Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12182 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74219 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
